Engine keeps overheating with no engine codes I have changed the thermostat the thermostat housing the radiator both fans and the water pump and none of this has fixed the problem the coolant doesn’t cycle from the coolant reservoir regardless of coolant levels are low or depleted. This is going to lead to bigger problems in the engine and the mechanics are out of Awnser as to what is happening.

While slowing to a stop, the vehicles engine sputtered and shook, and ultimately shut down. All power steering and braking capabilities were lost, leaving the vehicle in a drift. The vehicle had to be put into PARK to be halted. Fortunately, I was slowing in a neighborhood near a driveway, and was traveling slowly. Had this happened on a major road or freeway (and I have in fact detected this lurching before in such conditions), I or others could be seriously injured in a high speed collision. The vehicle has not been inspected by a dealer yet. Nor by police, insurance representatives, etc. No warning lights were engaged to warn me of the approaching stall.

Engine. A dealership charged me thousands of dollars and refused my car of needing to leave the service mechanic shop. Due to a defect of my cylinder head gasket being diagnosed as my car causing a leak. My engine estimates was billed after declining work from the service department explaining to my car was going to blow up. I had to drive with the overheating light comes on from the engine and cooling system defect. The recall was not requested I am complaining has caused a safety issue driving my Chrysler 200 lx. Companies that have serviced the maintenance of my vehicle have billed to fix issues my car don't have. Because the safety recall my vehicle does not offer for cooling symptoms. To breakdown and overheat from paying for service to prevent the problem, repair companies billed fees to prevent declining service, for a safety risk given to me as customer. I have a invoice billing statement could not question dealership why my car hazard to blowing up. When having to pay mechanic for labor not recommendent agreed to afford as paying customer. The problem has reproduced and confirmed by a dealer. After independent service center decline me owing a inspection diagnosis balance. Another company I take it to did not let me out a agreement to decline the mechanic labor. My car has been inspected from the dealership after I explained to them was waiting for a recall to approve the labor fees billed to me. P03 error code and the car inside lights would turn on and off from breaking and turning with the signal light button. Warning signs was overheating light on when the car is not running hot. Along with the temperature gauge going higher after replacing both thermostats and cooling sensor. The car gauge needle near middle hot level was the when the issues first appear as warning. A lot of the symptons of the engine cooling system issues occur during hot weather. Cooling system from the engine defect worsen not prevented over hot or cooler weather.

My vehicle just started this week to rough idle when braked at a red light. And when picking up speed in the city or highway it kicks back(rough idle/shaking) alot and the check engine light will flash and then dissappear. Nothing is getting picked up when checking for codes. But I believe it has to do with that safety recall: Chrysler Town & Country Engine Recall: 11V487000 Engine May Suffer Internal Damage and Stop Running I did get my oil change at the dealership I purchased but nothing came up to them about it as well(since they do inspection). This is my only transportation so I need this to get taken care of as I have 2 kids and appointments. Thank you. Consumer resolved the issue by changing the ignition coils.
